Order Seafood Online! Buy Fresh Seafood Delivered to Your Door

Below are online seafood markets that have staked out their specialties by region — lobsters from Maine, blue crab from Maryland, and fish native to the Atlantic, Pacific, Arctic and Caribbean waters. We kept an eye on the shipping costs. Some purveyors have amazing shipping deals, some so good we don’t know how they do it. Others are affordable only if you order and have it delivered in the same state. We know we’ve found the freshest seafood for every taste and budget. Let’s go shopping!

Fulton Fish Market, Bronx, New York

Here’s why the Fulton Fish Market is special: Ocean > Fulton Fish Market > You

Your other option: Ocean > Fish Market > Distribution Warehouse > Your local Store > You

And now the Fulton Market has expanded its online seafood offerings which are carefully curated to offer only the tastiest, safest, and most sustainable seafood selections. What’s ideal is you can order fresh fish (salmon, cod, halibut, etc.) cut and shrink-wrapped in 4 ounce portions, making it possible to do 3 or 4 weeks-worth of seafood shopping that you can conveniently store in your freezer.

So you get a huge selection of fresh-from-the-ocean seafood options that are priced as well or better than what you can get at the store, but shipping is going to be the deal breaker, right? Nope. $15 flat fee shipping. And free shipping if your order is over $100. We have no idea how they do it, we are just glad they do.

Maine Lobster Now, Portland, Maine

Maine Lobster Now sells live lobsters, lobster tails, and full lobster dinners, but they really won me over by selling a complete Lobster Roll kit that includes the lobster meat, split top country rolls, Hellman Mayonnaise (yes, classic lobster rolls are made only with Hellman’s!), Cape Cod Potato Chips, and Kate’s Creamery Butter with Sea Salt. I can imagine sending this as a birthday gift, or a house warming gift, or a new parent gift. No water to boil, no groceries to fetch. With this gift, the celebration has arrived.

Cameron’s Seafood, Maryland & Pennsylvania

Cameron’s Seafood knows what you’re looking for: 100% authentic, True Blue certified Maryland hard crabs, soft-shell crabs, and jumbo lump crab cakes made from crab meat from the Chesapeake Bay delivered to your doorstep.

Not sure what to choose? Send jumbo lump Maryland crab cakes from Cameron’s Seafood and you are golden.

Louisiana Crawfish Company, Natchitoches, Louisiana

If you’ve ever been to a crab boil, then you have a good idea of what a crawfish boil is. Family and friends gather, a table is covered in paper, and a small mountain of steaming, just-boiled crawfish is dumped in the middle. Once served, culinary mayhem begins. Shells are peeled, meat extracted, and grunts of pleasure fill the air as eaters fall into a trance of eating bliss. Do you wear a bib as you would eating lobster? Nope. Too fancy. And you’d get the side eye — at the very least — if you did.

The Louisiana Crawfish Company offers all things beloved in the Cajun state, from crawfish and all the de rigueur spice mixes, cajun sausages, Tasso ham, Gulf shrimp, and even the classic bayou cooking pots that make the proper boil possible.

Plan on purchasing 4 to 5 pounds per person. Crawfish are best bought live, and are ordered in 10, 30, and 60 pound quantities, delivered next day to your door. They should be cooked the day of delivery so have your act together, your people gathered, and the water boiling!

Pike Place Fish Market, Seattle, Washington

You can order a wide range of fresh fish online including salmon, halibut or mackerel either in fillets or whole, as well as crab and shellfish. It’s safe to say, if it swims or goes well with butter, this is the place to buy seafood online.

Giovanni’s Fish Market, Morro Bay, California

Their website isn’t fancy but neither are their prices which are excellent! Everything is sent via overnight delivery. Flat rate overnight shipping inside California is a deal at $19, shipping outside of California is going to run you $50 whether you live in Nevada or New York.

Hancock Gourmet Lobster Company, Topsham, Maine

Not only are customer reviews effusively positive, Hancock’s products have won multiple Gold awards from the prestigious International Fancy Food Show.

Using only the freshest Maine lobster and shellfish, products are made in small batches daily to preserve the integrity of the recipes. The products are then shipped directly to the customer’s door via overnight or two-day delivery, and ready to prepare and enjoy or save for future use.

Legal Seafood, MA, RI, VA, DC, PA

Legal Sea Foods is a group of east coast seafood restaurants mostly in Massachusetts, but with a few spots in Rhode Island, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Washington, DC and Georgia. They don’t like it when you refer to them as a “chain” because they insist each restaurant can specialize in dishes that reflect the local tastes.
